I want to know how can I remove the Global menu bar completely. The old tweaks for 12.04 isn't work completely for all apps like the Terminal and Nautilus.

  • How can you successfully accomplish any task without global menu (that is mean without indicator panel)? =) – unibasil Nov 01 '13 at 01:21

    Quite easily, just add a menu to each program with a simple command I have used. It was easy to do up until now. I find the Global Menu slows me down. If my Terminal has a menu my task is completed quickly. – chazdg Nov 01 '13 at 12:39

I agree, it is so much easier working with many windows if they have the menu in their window.

I found this command to work.

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings overrides '@a{sv} {"Gtk/ShellShowsAppMenu": <int32 0>}'

That I found on Global menu in Ubuntu 13.10 - Ubuntu Forums

    Yes, I tried that and it didn't work for me. I tend not to install tweaking software, but for some reason Unsettings took care of the issue for me. I will never understand the Global Menu feature, or use it. – chazdg Nov 05 '13 at 15:52

First, install Synaptic package manager, search for global menu and uninstall what you find under 'installed'. Restart Unity and that is it.

  • When you say "search for the global menu" what is the actual name of the global menu? –  May 01 '14 at 04:00
